The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed through the valley of al-Azraq and asked, "Which valley is this?"They replied, "This is the valley of al-Azraq."He said, "It is as if I can see Musa descending from the mountain pass, raising his voice to Allah in talbiyah."Then he came upon the pass of Harsha and asked, "Which pass is this?"They answered, "The pass of Harsha."He said, "It is as if I can see Yunus bin Matta
on a sturdy red she-camel, wearing a woolen cloak, the rein of his camel made of khulbah, calling out the talbiyah."Ibn Hanbal said in his version of the hadith that Hushaym explained khulbah means palm fiber, while he was reciting the talbiyah. Thus it appears in al-Musnad.
أن رسول الله ﷺ مر بوادي الأزرق فقال: أي واد هذا؟ فقالوا: هذا وادي الأزرق، قال: كأني أنظر إلى موسى عليه السلام هابطا من الثنية وله جوار إلى الله بالتلبية. ثم أتى على ثنية هرشى فقال: أي ثنية هذه؟ قالوا: ثنية هرشي. قال: كأني أنظر إلى يونس بن متى عليه السلام على ناقة حمراء جعدة عليه جبة من صوف. خطام ناقته خلبة، وهو يلبي. قال ابن حنبل في حديثه: قال هشيم: يعني ليفا وهو يلبي. كذا في المسند.
Muslim narrated it in the Book of Faith (166) from Ahmad bin Hanbal and Surayj bin Yunus, who both said, Hushaym narrated to us, Dawud bin Abu Hind informed us, from Abu Aliyah, from Ibn Abbas, and he related it. It is also found in Musnad Imam Ahmad (1854).His saying, "al-juar," means raising the voice and calling out for help.Muslim also narrated it by another route from Dawud with his chain, and in it Ibn Abbas said, "We traveled with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ between Makkah and Madinah." It also contains, "The halter of his she-camel was made of palm fiber."
